Credits...
Jezz_x for making the Original PM3-HD skin.

Please Note...
I use an older version of PM3-HD one before the Coverflow view was added i may add this in later the reason i use this build is i use an older version of XBMC and the newer skins don't work on these but the older skins work on any version so it was the logical solution.

if you want to remove it then you need to edit custom_Videomenu_1112.xml but this means removing buttons and changing there onup and ondown properties also you would need to edit the texture.

all new strings are in Languages\English\Strings.xml so you can rename them here.

OK am currently in the process of redoing all the textures like so as i watched Tron and i think this looks cool let me know what you think please.

On the custom Plugin location in settings it brings up the keyboard opposed to the browse to location the location.

I'm only pointing it out becasue I was trying to figure out what the "not set" was for. Wink

Removing the texture like you did does it speed up the Xbox or reduce the texture size much?

yeah you need to put in this plugin://video/plugin folder name

I may see if I can make it like add source but dont thin you can as adding the folder through the folder browser doesn't work hens why it's typing it in.

i has one though will test it and see if it works
